Megan Graves
My name is Megan Graves and I love Georgia Football. This is my new gameday attire I got for $10. I couldn't pass it up! I grew up in Athens and love this town for the unique places to eat and shop. It is a great place to call home.
I took my first dance class at age three. From that day forward I spent most my time in a dance studio or onstage. I danced in college until a knee injury slowed me down. I have recently been able to start again, and I am currently learning to ballroom dance.
My highschool was brand new when I was a freshman, and my graduating class was the first class to go all four years in the school. It was quite an experience with lots of opportunities, but we didn't have a newspaper or magazine. Not to mention I spent most my time in the dance studio at the school anyway.
I decided on Journalism after reading all the majors the university offered before picking this one. I have always enjoyed writing, and so far I am really enjoying it. I am hoping to get more involved this semester!
One of my favorite things I get to do is spend Sunday mornings with a classroom full of two-year-olds at Sunday school at Watkinsville First Baptist Church. I learn so much from them, and love every minute.
During the week I spend a lot of my nights and afternoons babysitting. This is one of my little boys I have had at church since he was in the crib. Enough said I love kids.
My goal for the semester is to fly to Burbank, California to see the Ellen DeGeneres Show. Nothing brightens my day like an episode of Ellen.

Megan,
ReplyDeleteThat new outfit looks, um, great. You must really love the Bulldogs.
What high school did you go to? I ask because I wonder if it's in my backyard ... (Monsignor Donovan is almost in my backyard).
Oh, and you love babysitting? Did I mention I have three kids?
Editing notes:
-high school not highschool
-journalism not Journalism
-football not Football
-Enough said. I love kids
I actually went to North Oconee, but we moved to Clarke County when I graduated.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your newest addition! I know you are busy with three boys! If you ever need a sitter I'm here!
